.SH NAME
vga_setpage \- set the 64K SVGA page number
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B "#include <vga.h>"
.BI "void vga_setpage(int " page );
.SH DESCRIPTION
Usually SVGA cards have more than the 64K memory which suffice for an ordinary VGA.
However, the memory window mapped at
.BR vga_getgraphmem (3)
is only 64K bytes large.
.BR vga_setpage()
selects the
.IR page "-th"
64K memory chunk to be visible at position
.BR vga_getgraphmem (3).
The
.BR fun "(6) and " vgatest (6)
show the basic use of this function.

This manual page was edited by Michael Weller <eowmob@exp-math.uni-essen.de>. The
exact source of the referenced function as well as of the original documentation is
unknown.
It is very likely that both are at least to some extent are due to
Harm Hanemaayer <H.Hanemaayer@inter.nl.net>.
Occasionally this might be wrong. I hereby
asked to be excused by the original author and will happily accept any additions or corrections
